Hey guys,
This the config that I use for my Samsung S8+ phone. I'm using Sophos as security and anti-theft, and most importantly I've stopped using Chrome because it doesn't support extensions (most importantly an ad blocker). The device is updated to the latest security patch.

Thank you @spaceoctopus , I'm giving AdGuard for Android a try. What filtering method do you use Local VPN or Local Proxy? Because it's always running, I have to ask if it has a noticeable impact on the battery?

@Jack Hi! I use Local VPN mode for a very long time now. So far i had no battery draining or other issues whatsoever. Just updated smoothly to the latest version today (ver 3.0) Local proxy mode is better if you have your phone rooted
